Legendary Weapon Modifier Rolls
Each Legendary Weapon has a chance to roll different stats when you obtain them, so if you get one with attributes you don’t like, keep farming until you are satisfied with your drops. There are 11 potential effects that your Legendary Weapons can obtain, so you should always check whether these modifiers will do well with your build. Here are the V Rising Legendary Weapon Modifier Rolls:
| Weapon Modifier | Min | Max |
| Bonus Spell Power | 3 | 6 |
| Max Health | 24 | 48 |
| Movement Speed (%) | 4% | 8% |
| Physical Resistance (%) | 6% | 12% |
| Physical Critical Chance (%) | 6% | 12% |
| Physical Critical Strike Damage (%) | 10% | 20% |
| Resource Yield (%) | 12% | 24% |
| Spell Critical Chance (%) | 6% | 12% |
| Spell Critical Strike Damage (%) | 10% | 20% |
| Spell Life Leech (%) | 3% | 6% |
| Weapon Attack Speed (%) | 5% | 10% |
We don’t know of any method to manipulate or control the outcome of the modifier rolls. You might also get a weapon with Resource Yield, which most people want to avoid. Learning how to farm these Legendary items more efficiently is a good idea.
How to Farm V Rising Legendary Weapons
There are two ways of obtaining Legendary Weapons in their shattered form. You can acquire them as boss drops or from wealthy Merchants in the Mortis region. Depending on your gear level, you might prefer one over the other. Here are some excellent farming methods for Legendary Weapons:
Farming Bosses in Gloomrot
The Shattered Ancestral Weapons can be obtained by killing and looting V-Blood Bosses that are level 75+ and above. The most farmable elites would be the one in Gloomrot, so you may want to start farming there. However, there are still some bosses in other regions that would also drop these things. Here is an excellent example of a good route for grinding Legendary Weapon drops:
- Teleport to the Northern Gloomrot Waypoint and head northeast
- Fight Voltatia, The Power Master first.
- Afterward, fight Henry Blackbrew, The Doctor.
- If you can fight Adam, the First Born, you should also try slaying him for the loot.
- Once you’vefinished your run with these three, head towards the eastern side of Farbane and fight the Winged Terror on the Dreaded Peak.
- Lastly, head towards the Cursed Forest, the easternmost side, and fight Matka, the Curse Weaver.
- Once you have finished these bosses, repeat the rotation once they respawn.
This route should be one of the best rotations for farming Legendary Weapon. However, if you level up further, you can fight additional bosses to increase your chances of getting Shattered material. Here are the other elites that you can slay for drops:
- Nightmarshal Styx the Sunderer
- Gorecrusher the Behemoth
- Solarus the Immaculate
Farm Stygian Shards in Mortis
The easiest way to obtain Legendary Weapons is to buy Shattered weapons from the wealthy merchants in Ruins of Mortium. To do this, you must farm Stygian Shards, one of the game’s most essential resources. You can use these to buy wares from merchants or obtain Passives. However, for this guide, we will focus on the first function.
You can farm Stygian Shards by doing Rift Incursions, which will occur randomly when you build the Eye of Mortium. This event is restricted to the Ruins of Mortium, so you don’t need to travel around the whole map. You can start doing this at level 57 or higher and gain increasingly better rewards the higher you go.
Each Rift event has its own Tiers; the higher they go, the higher the level requirement. To finish them, you need to spawn and kill a phantom of a random V-Blood Boss by killing enemies in specific locations. You can track these areas by following the shadow trail in the sky that pinpoints the zones you need to go to. You can gain Stygian Shards from the ritual sites and the boss.
Once you have enough shards, you can buy Ancestral Weapon Shards from the merchants in the Mortis region. On default, these NPCs will offer you purple-graded shards, but there is a chance of getting a Legendary one when they appear in your inventory. In addition, these Merchants will sometimes start selling yellow (Legendary) shards upon reset, so you should regularly check them to see if you have enough Stygian tokens.
How to Craft these Legendary Ancestral Weapon Shards
All Ancesrtral will require a specific set of materials, and the Legendary ones require rare mats. Most of these resources can only be obtained in Gloomrot and Silverlight Hills, so you need to upgrade your gear. Here are the materials you need for any Legendary Weapon:
- 3 Dark Silver Ingot
- 3 Gold Ingot
- 3 Power Core
- 1 Blood Merlot
Dark Silver Ingot and Gold Ingot can mainly be farmed in Silverlight Hills, and the best zone to farm in is Brighthaven. If you are playing solo or in a PvE server, you can spend hours here non-stop and get a lot of resources. Power Cores must be crafted with three Radium Alloys and three Charged Battery per piece. Each of these components must be crafted, and here are the things you need:
- 4 Radium Alloy: Camouflage 1 Sludge-filled Cannisters, 3 Sulfur, and 45 Tech Scrap
- Empty Cannister (use it on a Sludge swamp to get Sludge-filled Cannisters): 1 Iron and 3 Glass
- Depleted Batteries: Farmable from machine mobs in Gloomrot, then charge it in Thunderstrike Peak to get Charged Batteries.
- Blood Merlot: Obtained by getting Blood from prisoners with Empty Vial and Sacred Grapes
Most of these materials are end-game, so you can use Dark Silver weapons to farm things efficiently. You should gather as much as possible to have extra materials for crafting V Rising Legendary Weapons if you don’t like the ones you currently have.
You say “The Shattered Ancestral Weapons can be obtained by killing and looting V-Blood Bosses that are level 75+ and above”, but Henry Blackbrew and Matka, the Curse Weaver have a 74lvl ))
